Napoleon’s Travelling Bookshelf \u00a0<\/em>by Sarah Hesketh<\/a><\/h4>\n

Was \u00a37.99 \u00a0 Now \u00a34.79<\/span><\/a><\/h4>\n

At once erudite, humourous and stylishly contemporary, Sarah Hesketh\u2019s debut collection invokes a world of frozen lakes, \u2018snow-spun streets\u2019 and people who have stayed too long. Drawing from myth, history and a close reading of the present,\u00a0Napoleon\u2019s Travelling Bookshelf<\/em>\u00a0is an impressive and engaging journey into love, identity and what it is to be alone. Hesketh was recently longlisted for the Medicine Unboxed Creative Award for her second book, The Hard Word Box<\/a><\/em>, and we’re offering the chance to get to know her back catalogue this summer\u00a0for under \u00a35.<\/p>\n

Emergency Window \u00a0<\/em>by Ross Sutherland<\/a><\/h4>\n

Was \u00a38.99 \u00a0 Now \u00a35.39<\/span><\/a><\/h4>\n

Nothing is at it seems in Ross Sutherland’s second collection: a science fiction reality of mirrors, windows and menacing simulacra. In an ambitious book from one of the UK’s most celebrated poetry performers, poems are written using Google Streetview, by throwing online translation software and classic literature together, and by expanding the gaming manual for Street Fighter 2.\u00a0Surreal, funny, intelligent and experimental, these poems chart a search for meaning in a disintegrating world.<\/p>\n
